I am struggling to develop my website based on what I can find on the web without any formal training.

I have succeeded in creating a two level menu where the 2nd level is displayed (expanded in accordeo fashion) when moving the cursor over the 1st level button thanks to a javascript found on the web which I customized.

The 2nd level of menu choices are to select one the months of the year for which the programmed activities of our association would be displayed in an iframe on the same page without refreshing the page.

In fact, I’d like any menu selection, be it level 1 or 2, to use the same iframe space on the screen.
The statement contains a link to be used when clicked on the particular menu key. How can I “replace” this link so that when clicked upon a partiular key the appropriate src=”document.html” finds its way into the iframe?

if its a link, don`t you just need a target reference to load the link in the iframe? Or am I mssing what you need?

However, … (there’s almost always a but …).

In one instance my iframe is used to contain the (google) agenda of the club. Amazingly IE respects the size given in the iframe, but FF expands happily beyond the screen width. How can I force FF to respect the iframe size ?

if you come up with ideas let me know.

thanks!

if (notes2 == “yes”) {
document.write(‘<fieldset><legend>’);

document.write(‘Notes Area<br></legend>’);

document.write(‘<center>Blurb Text Here that shows up on webpage<br><br><script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://forms.example.com/form/XX/4#*$!#*$!xx.js”></script><br>More blurb text that shows up after the reg. box</center>’);

document.write(‘</fieldset>’);
document.write(‘<br><br>’);
}
)*

This code places the box where it should be in Firebox but in IE 7 the registration box is at the bottom of the table, not between the two text blurbs. Any idea how I can get this to show up in IE? if it’s “just not rendering” try breaking up the code. Weird things sometimes happen with Javascript within document.write.

document.write(‘<scr’+'ipt type=”text/jav’+'ascr’+'ipt” src=”http://forms.example.com/form/XX/4#*$!#*$!xx.js”></scr’+ipt>’);

Second, your formatting is likely a result of a combination of Quirks mode and deprecated tags/discouraged approaches to formatting. Use a valid document type and validate your pages, this will make 90% of your formatting problems go away, Javascript or not.

To solve that, here is how I’d handle this (but move inline styles to external style sheets.) You may have to insert text-align:center and width:400px (or some valid value) to get the effects you want:

document.write(‘<fieldset style=”margin:auto;”>’);
document.write(<legend>’Notes Area<br></legend>’);
document.write(‘<p style=”text-align:center”>Blurb Text Here that shows up on webpage</p>’);

document.write(‘<div style=”margin:auto;”>’);
document.write(‘<scr’+'ipt type=”text/jav’+'ascr’+'ipt” src=”http://forms.example.com/form/XX/4#*$!#*$!xx.js”></scr’+ipt>’);
document.write(‘</div>’);

<!–
if you still have problems
add document.write(‘<div style=”clear:both;”></div>’);
right here
–>

document.write(‘<p style=”text-align:center”>More blurb text that shows up after the reg. box</p>’);
document.write(‘</fieldset>’);

Note the clearing div, you probably won’t need it, or can set the last p to clear, or overflow: none on the div containing the script – but overall, Standards Mode and semantic output should help you.

This is the code I am using to test with for now:

set xml = Server.CreateObject(“Microsoft.XMLHTTP”)
set xmlDoc = Server.CreateObject(“Microsoft.XMLDOM”)

xml.open “POST”, “##HOST ADDRESS##”, false
xml.setRequestHeader “Content-Type”, “application/x-www-form-urlencoded”
xml.send (orderString)
xmlResponseStr = xml.responseText
Response.Write(“<br /><br />”)
Response.write(xmlResponseStr)

‘ Parse Returned XML
set xmlDoc = Server.CreateObject(“Microsoft.XMLDOM”)
xmlDoc.async = True
xmlDoc.Load(xml.responseXML)

Set itemList = xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName(“*”)

Dim xmlApproved

Response.Write(“<br /><br />”)

For Each item In itemList
Response.Write(“IN HERE”)
For each child in item.childNodes
Response.Write(“IN DEEPER”)
Response.Write(child.nodeName)
Response.Write(“<br /><br />”)
Next
Next

Set xmlDoc = Nothing
Set itemList = Nothing
Set xml = nothing
%>

As you may see this is the first time I have ever attempted something like this.
